Sorry, Emilie for misspelling your name.
Airbnb support has contacted me again to say that we need to set our account as 'default' which it is set at. We have reset it several times.
Airbnb has also sent an email saying we will be paid by 13 May which will be 2 months since the first guest stayed, whose payment has not arrived.
My husband and cohost, who is an accountant, considers it like 'skimming', an internal fraud practice where clients' money is borrowed and repaid when funds from another account are stolen.
We are not as badly off as other Airbnb hosts as despite the recent increase in food and fuel prices we can manage on our part pensions and superannuation. However, we are now using our savings to purchase necessities and pay to our cleaner. At least we have savings.
It is also partially our fault as we used our February payouts to purchase new bed linen and lovely colourful indigenous patterned quilt covers.
